Times of crisis require governments to step up and take lead. While the people are facing issues due to a definitive loss of income, the government of Bihar introduced the Bihar Anganwadi Labharthi Yojana along with the Department of Social Welfare.

Anganwadi basically is a maternal and child care outing by the government and especially in trying times like these, these Anganwadis are stepping up to the crisis. Women from the below poverty line were, up until now, given meals and healthcare tips to get them safely through their pregnancy.

Beneficiaries primarily include children who are registered at Anganwadi centers, lactating women, and pregnant women.
